I suspect where your problem is. Gnome should start configuring your monitors from left to right, i.e. calling xrandr starting from --pos 0x0. You can try to locate where Gnome keeps these settings and tweak them to that effect (grepping for randr?). I see the same problem in KDE and this is a general idea how I fixed that for me. I have a similar issue with Fedora 16 Gnome. Dual head (DVI-D) identical monitors. Only the login screen does not turn on head 0 at all, but does try to display the login screen on that head. Head 0 is left Head 1 is right. Configured for auto login with menu system on head 1. At least that way I can get to the system settings so that I can tell gnome to turn on head 0 when logged in. Reboot after setting up dual monitor and head zero goes back to blank (no signal and the monitor will go to sleep). New HP P7-1126s Windows 7 works fine with dual setup. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
